1. They may parcel them out
to keep the whole thing going a little longer. You don't want two major stories competing with each other for attention. One at a time, so as not to overload the processicng capacities of the Booboisie.

3. I think so
IIRC the Bush DWI story was held until a week or two prior to the election.
